Here are some reactions on social media.

It seems after R. Kingston, the black stars are finding it difficult to get a goalkeeper who is so confidence oo…

I think our attacking midfielders needs to release the balls as quickly as possible… How can Inaki Williams be on the pitch and no player will pass him the ball… If this is the behavior we’re going to show up during the Africon de3, then we should forget about winning a trophy ooo

We are praying Tariq lamptey, Amartey,bukari and Djiku to get well soon. If not,then let’s forget about the Afcon

Elijah K Mensah

We had a few chances in the first half and we couldn’t utilized it… though the changes he made was a little late,the defence was not strong.

Isaac Asare

Combine Partey and Salis. Play Jordan, Kudus and Paintsil with Semenyo up front. As for the defence I know we have problem since they are injured but Gideon Mensah was excellent. Look at how Abdul Salis was playing the midfield comfortably.

Plane Victor

We were simply outplayed. To be frank, there is nothing unique about our team. It makes me wonder if the manager has a clue as to what game plan he is playing. Just individual talents assembled to kick and balloon the ball around. No cohesion, no desire, no consistency in possession or exchange of passes, no threat going forward, etc.

If we really mean business, it is either we sack the manager or get him to sit up. It is about time we get serious as a nation and adopt to a certain game plan and tactics
